My brother is worse than me. Once he was home by himself and his daughter, and was woken at 1am by police knocking on his bedroom window with the flashlight. Turns out his daughter had been crying throughout the night and he didnt wake up to it but it took the neighbours to ring the cops worried about what was happening in his house.

I generally have a coffee as a night cap. Coffee at 8pm...bed by 8:30pm asleep by 9pm.

Alarm goes off at 4:20am but generally wake up just before. On a few occasions recently have woken and grabbed my phone to see 4:19am.

Not surprised by a connection with ADHD, caffeine and my ability to not be affected by it.

Yep, I’ve pretty much lived off 5hrs sleep since I was a kid. Thankfully I get very good uninterrupted sleep. Generally go to bed around midnight and get up at 5:30 with no alarm clock. My wife is the opposite and is the lightest sleeper I know, she is in bed by 10pm and gets up 2 times per night for the toilet and can’t have even a sliver of light in the room. She has even resorted to sleeping with one of those aircraft eye masks and is on sleeping tablets. Me on the other hand can sleep in full light and we once had a car dumped outside our house and set on fire, I didn’t even hear the explosion and wife had to kick me to wake up

I guess no point in having working smoke detectors then …

One of our executives who travels a lot, gets on a plane and goes straight to sleep, told us of a story recently how the plane had landed and everyone had departed the plane and the crew had to wake him up to get off

I can't sleep on a plane, tried staying up all day for a 1am flight from Bali and still failed, despite having an afternoon session.

Worked with a bloke that was notorious for napping at afternoon smoko.

One day we all cleared out of the lunch room, after winding forward the clock a few hours. We all hid, and watched as he finally woke up, looked at the clock which was showing about an hour after knock off, and he raced to the carpark, only to come back in about 10 minutes when he realised what we'd done!

As long as my wife is home I’m safe. She can hear a mosquito buzzing 3 miles away when she is trying to sleep

I did comment to her one day that if her effin ears worked as well as they do at night when talking to me then we would never have an argument. That went down like the Hindenburg

Im the same, I tried on a recent flight to Perth and actually drifted off but each time my head fell forward I thought the plane was going down so that was the end of it.

as much as i can sleep in a bed easily enough, i need perfect conditions in a plane but I found neck pillow and noise cancelling headphones are the best method. managed 4 hours on my last overnight flight which is as best as I have ever done. Cattle class of course.

I’m usually the same, can’t sleep on flights. However one time flying out of Beijing I nodded off (about 10 beers deep on boarding) as the plane was taxiing out and still on the tarmac. Woke up 3 hours into the flight.

Thankfully no International cattle class for us in nearly 15 years so into bed mode, quite a few vodkas and nap for a few hours.
We were going back over some of our old travel documents, photos, tickets etc and worked out that it’s nearly 80 International business flights each so no wonder we can’t retire yet!

I’m poor because of it!
The majority of our money goes on holidays each year
